There aren't that many people who see swampwalk in such a positive manner. Ironically, phrases such as "slicker than snail snot" as considered acceptable. Who want snail snot? It no got swampwalk!
Blessing back at you!

How about black G-10 for the new mod?

I'll be good with neon magenta so long as the clip is ambidextrous and it still sports a nested compression lock.

Hmmm
either dark black/gray/green G10 will be fine. But don't make it light blue/red/green! I don't want eye balls staring at my knife.
And please make it deep pocket carry. The reason we carry a folder instead of a fixed blade for SD is it's easier to carry and conceal.
Please also add some thumb notches on the spine of the knife.
Will the new model also come with 2 blade shapes (upswept and leaf)?

Make it Ambi and I'll eventually buy two! I saw an FRN proto of the Li'l Temp II and initially didn't like it, cuz my current Li'l Temp has 'finer materials' giving me the feeling that it is a custom piece. I'm warming up to an FRN version now, I must confess. It will be cheaper and more easily replaced if lost.

I saw the FRN proto and I am sorry to say that to me the scales looked like hardened play dough.

If G-10, I may buy one (though not if green). FRN would be a little bit a disappointment IMHO.

Before we get too concerned ... sometimes Sal has a different material in the prototype than the production version, for convenience. Do we know what the answer is?
Actually, I'd strongly prefer g-10, but I'd buy even an FRN version if it had liners.

Thom, hope you get your ambi clip on the LT II.
I must admit I often wonder if Sal substituted FRN, with exactly the same color and finish as current the G10, on the Lil T, Manix, or Chinook II whether anyone would notice. I sometimes think our perceptions of the relative desirability of these materials is based primarily on looks, which are influenced heavily by the finish. Put another way, I wonder if really well done FRN would make G10 seem like a waste of money.

I don't want snail snot.
But finding a knife that opens slicker than snail snot in a greased teflon pan would really be something :p
Oh, wait, I have a couple of those :spyder: knives already!
